OT - Olympics - are you upset to find out the results early before watching on prime time TV?

I for one wish the people at work would keep quiet so I can watch and be suprised at night. Here is my weekly sports blog article sharing that opinion.

Comment here as you like. Social media has defiantely changed the way events like are covered to some extent.

    Yes, it's really pissing me off. As soon as I check any news site for any news, I get the results as the largest article on the site. You can't miss seeing it

    Why can't they do online with what they do on TV news and warn you to look away? All they would need is a big Olympic symbol with the words "click for results"

    I was able to avoid the news sites but then people started posting results on facebook. Ugh. It's a sign of the times we live in. Tape delays just don't work anymore.

    It's a huge PITA. You can avoid the internet all day and then some blabbermouth co-worker blurts out results anyway. We're in the instant information age and there's no turning back now.
